Rooster Town: The History Of An Urban M?tis Community, 1901Û1961

Rooster Town, which grew on the outskirts of southwest Winnipeg from 1901 to 1961, was one of many M?tis communities on the edges of urban areas in Manitoba, and probably the most famous of them all. Rooster Town documents the story of a community rooted in kinship, culture, and historical circumstance, existing unofficially in the cracks of municipal bureaucracy, navigating the legacy of settler colonialism and the demands of modernity and urbanization.
